Eh, I kinda like the juxtaposition of the dumb, juvenile toilet humor - with the wittier, nuanced sociopolitical/cultural comedy. Same reason I enjoy Rick and Morty (at least the first few seasons). South Park has been better about being consistent about this since I got into the show 20+ years ago. Though they've actually gone so much more in the latter direction lately (and less successfully), I'd actually find a return to more of the silly, goofier fart jokes w/less bombast more refreshing. Regarding the game - looks pretty sweet to me at least artistically. But I legit couldn't grasp what kind of game it was from the brief amount of actual footage shown.. MOBA? third-person action? Diablo-style isometric ARPG? |
My point is that the excessive fart jokes and gags aren’t what South Park was ever about. It’s what the critics in the 1990s incorrectly claimed the show was about. This is why the Terrence and Phillip episode was created, to depict what a show like that would otherwise be. I mean, if that’s what you want, the second South Park game might be for you. It gave me a headache in the same way a bad meme repeated over and over and over and over again does.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
